Help needed apply within(seahorses/hair algae)
 

Just wondering, I have hair algae in my seahorse tank and wanting to know if I can add a rainford gobie and or lettuce nudibranch to help get rid of it. I have both coming tommorrow. Will the gobie bug the seahorses?:biggrin:
Thanks with any advice,
Leah

My Lawnmower blenny is pretty peacefull. I' wouldn't think he'd bother the horses

I've had a hectors goby with dwarf seahorse and they were fine. I dont think you will have a problem.

Hey Leah,
we have a orange diamond goby in our tank with our seahorses and he does not bother them.
The only problem that we've seen with him is at feeding time. They have a trough,and if we only put mysis in the trough, he will come eat it all before they get to it.
We just make sure to give him some mysis in another area of the tank.

As long as he's fed, he stays very peaceful.

Good luck!

That was great, thanks Pazil that answered my questions and then some:lol:

No problem... that website is a great resource for seahorse keeping.

The lettuce nudibrach will only eat bryopsis...not the usual hair algae.

Of course it won't eat it!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for answering your question....:neutral:
